Kim walked the 5k route with the friendly bunch of Park runners/walkers in the Role of Tail Walker. It was a slightly soggy start but it fortunately stopped raining just in time for the event to start and ensured a lovely stroll with an official time of 56 minutes and 10 seconds.

There are many different hi-viz hero roles for everyone to get involved at Parkrun but the Tail Walker is a friendly face that’s starts right at the back of the field and is the last person to cross the finish line, ensuring everyone is accounted for.

Laura and Kim were helping other volunteers mulch-titasking moving compost with a combination of wheel barrows and buckets to put around young trees to help suppress the weeds and prevent them drying out whilst they get established. Even a brief April shower didn't put them off!

Thank you to Trees for Wimborne for having us.

Good Gym were back at the Cornerstone Patch again this weekend for their Saturday social gardening session.

Kim and Mary got to work digging up the weeds and preparing the soil for fruit trees to be planted by Bel.

It was great to be back and enjoy the winter sunshine on the bike too!

Mary headed off on her bike this morning to deliver food to Jimmy's food bank in Poole.

Jimmy's is open an extra day in the run up to Christmas.

It was great to chat with Alana about volunteering at the food bank and how Goodgym can support future food deliveries by bike.

It was great to see how much has grown in the Cornerstone Patch since our last visit!

It was also brilliant to have a group of Good Gym volunteers to help prepare the ground for more growing. Thanks everyone!

Hope to see you again for the next session in October!

After cycling and running over to Hamworthy, we quickly got started digging and clearing the ground so it could be made accessible. Several wheelbarrows later we managed to clear the whole lot.

It was a brilliant team effort - thanks Catherine and Judith for digging almost non stop and getting it all done in an hour!🙌
